GGGGmail (temporaly name) visualizes your history of gmail.
Our goal for this project is to uncover e-mail relationship with other people through 2D and 3D visualization. 2D animation shows history of your mail box with all senders on a time basis. 3D visualization represents your e-mail history with top 10 senders. You might find something interesting during process.
Initial sketch
process #1: first of all, we managed to downloaded data from Gmail server, and converted it to XML file.
First processing sketch: traditional dots visualization
Applying physics to circles.
2D animation: numbers of circles represents numbers of senders, and Size of dots represents number of e-mails they sent. This animation generates sections for 3D visualization.
3D visualization of history with top 10 senders between 2008 – 2010.
Crazy looking history of 6,000 emails with 900 users. They look like nerves.
